    I want you to train the younger people who work there to understand how difficult working on a computer is for some elderly customers and if they have to take "a little breath" before helping them, it will work out much better for them and the older customer. The younger people may need a bit more patience, and a bit of understanding when they answer their telephone.

    After my mother fell ill, she asked me to cancel her account as she found the service useless -- which LifeLock refused to do. For four months after my mother died -- Lifelock continued to refuse to cancel her account and continued to charge her credit card. Even after several notices and agreeing to send paperwork to get it canceled and saying they would not continue to charge her, they continued to charge her credit card. After the credit card was canceled they continued to charge her credit card. When the credit card was canceled they sent threatening letters. DO NOT SIGN up for this service as it is impossible to cancel.

    Hello, We are sorry to hear of your loss. Please accept our condolences. Our members may cancel at any time. In order to maintain the security of our members account, to assist we would need a general Power of Attorney on file. However, once a member passes away, we require a copy of the Certificate of Death in order to cancel their account. Once the certificate of death is received, LifeLock will issue a prorated refund back to the date of passing. I apologize for any issues you had in cancelling your mothers account. Thank you for taking time to provide your feedback.

    I was a LifeLock member since about 2005. I lead off by stating the only reason customer support is rated as a "4" is because LifeLock never contacted me with advertising and cancel my membership quickly. That said, the overall service is not as advertised. In the beginning, service that was advertised was what I received. Once LifeLock started tiering their services is when it went downhill. Spending several hundred dollars a year, one would expect a simple mortgage application would trigger one of the so called alerts you see on television, but that did not happen.

    Since 2005, I've moved 4 times and bought 2 houses. Neither mortgage application -- and subsequent credit checks to establish new services in a new city -- triggered any LifeLock notifications, calls, or anything of the sort. LifeLock was more than happy to cancel my membership of over 10 years without even questioning why. I have since signed up with a different service and within a week of new service, I was notified of activity associated with my SSN. LifeLock isn't worth the money.

    Hello, We are sorry to hear that you are not satisfied with our service and have since cancelled your membership. 
    LifeLock does not monitor all transactions at all businesses. Although we have a large number of companies in our network of surveillance, not all merchants participate and on occasion an application may be submitted that does not fall within our network.
    LifeLock is constantly working to expand the reach of our network and improve coverage to our members. Keep in mind that LifeLock members are also backed by our $1 Million Service Guarantee. If you become a victim of identity theft while a LifeLock Member, we will spend up to one million dollars to hire experts to help your recovery. The benefits of the service guarantee are provided under a master insurance policy underwritten by United Specialty Insurance Company. For full details, terms, and restrictions on the policy, see LifeLock.com/legal.
    Additionally, LifeLock offers different levels of service.  Although the level of service you were enrolled in does not provide alerts for credit inquiries, the LifeLock Ultimate Plus service does include this feature.

    I apologize for any misunderstanding about our services.

    I've been less than satisfied with LifeLock since I joined. I added my wife as a member and, she had no "profile" like I did on the site. Even though she was connected to my account, I couldn't add her credit cards and she wasn't afforded the same benefits I was - even though she was paying exactly the same amount. Then, when I tried to cancel her off my account (after 5 years of, basically, what I felt was wasted money), I had to email the company to do so. I searched the site *everywhere* to find a "remove additional subscriber" button - to no avail. LL should make it easy to remove someone from your account on the "Manage Account" screen. Making it difficult doesn't dissuade subscribers from removing people or unsubscribing. It simply makes existing users angry at the company and feel that *all* you want is our money by making it difficult to "get out" when someone's made the decision to do so.

    I realize LL is out for a profit - companies can't survive without a substantial bottom line - but making it difficult to "unsubscribe" to your service is a terrible way to retain business. LL should aspire to retain subscribers by providing better value for the dollar - rather than making EVERYTHING an "upgrade". Maybe if they reduced their advertising budget and increased value for existing customers, they might see an increase in business through organic growth. Retention is key - but forced retention builds animosity and resentment toward the company and basically assures those who unsubscribe will most likely never return.

    The bottom line is this: LL should make ACTUAL account management achievable within the "Manage Account" screen. And, they should provide more value to their existing subscribers. Get rid of all the "upgrades". $200.00 a year is a substantial bill - and, sadly, at that fee level, I feel as if I'm getting precious little for my money.

As a Lifelock member if you receive a notice of a fraudulent account opened or attempted to be opened and did not receive a Lifelock alert all that is needed is for you to call us and advise us. We would need to know the date it opened, what personal information of yours was used. We do advise our members that our Alert network includes a variety of product features and data sources. Although it is very extensive, our network does not cover all transactions at all businesses. So you might not receive a Lifelock alert in every single case.

    To also clarify, Lifelock is unable to track your spending or know about fraudulent activity on your card. We would advise you to contact your bank. If your bank or credit card company holds you responsible for any fraudulent charges on your account, contact LifeLock immediately and one of our Member Services agents will assist you.

    Hello, We are sorry to hear that somebody used your credit/debit card to enroll you with LifeLock. Please keep in mind, there could be a few reasons why you were enrolled or charged; usually it's something harmless. Sometimes family members sign each other up, or sometimes people receive LifeLock as an employee benefit and don't realize it. Other times people get signed up accidentally while trying to take advantage of an online offer. If you feel this is not the case, or you notice other charges to your card that you don't recognize, you should contact your credit/debit card company immediately to dispute the charges. Again, we are sorry that this has happened to you.

    I cannot understand why anybody would take this company seriously. They don't really protect you. They just keep looking at your banking statement and your credit card charges and keep asking you if you have made a particular payment. Accordingly, they kept bugging me with each online check payment and each credit card charge above $500. Because their software is so very primitive and doesn't learn anything, each month I had to respond to them for every periodic payment I make over and over, and over again. The contract they make you sign, frees them from any responsibility. They do take your money however. I used them for a little over 6 months and finally dismissed them.

Your information is organized, visible, and easy to access. The program is easy to operate. LifeLock keeps tabs on your info and has a great alert system that you can easily interact with immediately. Service agents are cheerful, willing, and do the work for you; they know what to do to get it done. The site offers a lot of other helpful information if you need to act on your own for other issues or have questions. Comparatively with the other programs, the other programs often deliver hard to decipher information or alerts and there is little to no assistance to deal with it.

    I was notified by LifeLock that someone had applied for a Chase credit card using my social security number. LifeLock resolved the issue in minutes with a conference call to Chase. Chase assured me that they had denied the application, because I had placed a 2 year freeze on credit inquiries. The only way the credit application could have been approved was for them to call me for approval. Hooray for both fraud depts.

    I answered your questions concerning an alert with a "NO" to the question about opening a new account for two reasons, (1) I opened a J.C. Penney account earlier in that day but was told that it was a "temporary" account, So I thought you wouldn't want that considered in your query, (2) I noticed that on your question sheet you entered your Data Source as Synchrony Bank. I didn't open any account with that bank, but during my conversation with one of your agents I was told that that bank handles most of the larger retail customers accounts, hence my application went to Synchrony Bank and you folks quickly jumped into an investigation. My "NO" was changed to a "YES", and I guess everyone is happy.

    Became a LifeLock member in 7,August of 2016. Today is September 27th and I still cannot get a copy of my Equifax credit report! Issue: I could not answer the identity verification questions presented by Equifax. Well of course I can't because the questions do-not-apply! I've never owned a home or lived in Utah, don't own a Toyota and don't have any store credit cards! So, first I was told it would take 30 calendar days to resolve by a customer service rep, now it's 30 business days! Then just this past Friday September 23rd I was told a supervisor would contact Equifax and call me back sometime after 1:30pm (cst). Waited around, No phone call.

    I was reviewing my bank account and realized that there was a charged that did not made sense. Never seeing the company (Lifelock). Never subscribed to it. After further search there were 5 monthly charges. Called the 800 number and explained my situation. After being on hold for a few minutes, rep Mari mention that it looked that a 3rd party company signed me up for possible commission. They had my personal information right except for the email and the phone number. To add insult to injury, agent Mari commented "See this is why you need our company. Someone has your personal information why don't you give me your real email and phone number and you can keep this account."

    After requesting to stop the membership and full refund the agent Mary said that unfortunately they could only refund 2 months (and they will pocket the other 3 months) even if is not your fault. Their excuse not to refund your money is that I was my responsibility to check my bank account for reincurring charges (sometimes hard when you only use one account for everything). So beware, even it was not my fault I lost and the winner is Lifelock (pocket 3 months) with their excuse "that is not their fault that a 3rd party is doing it". And still they will pocket your money.

    The next business day was Monday. I contacted my bank, got the whole investigation started, applied for my new card and hoped that no serious damage had been done to my account. On Tuesday I sent a note inquiring if you were still monitoring my account, inasmuch as I had the above-described problem and to that day had not been contacted by you. The following day I received a call from your representative who talked to me for probably 15 minutes and gave no definitive explanation, all I gleaned from the call was that I was no longer getting the service I had been getting because you had changed your program and if I wanted that level of service, I would have to pay more!

    Hello, I am sorry to hear your credit card was compromised. Unfortunately, there is little that can be done to completely prevent fraudulent activity on your credit or debit cards. There are many different methods that criminals use to obtain the card information, from something as simple as writing the number down to more sophisticated technology that can detect the information without the cards ever leaving your possession. The only sure way to avoid fraudulent activity is to use cash when making purchases. You may also want to contact your bank/financial institution to see if they are able to add any extra security measures to your account. Please keep in mind that LifeLock does not monitor charges on your existing accounts. Your bank accounts and credit cards are protected by the financial institution that issued the account/card. Due to privacy laws in the banking industry only the bank or credit card company that issued the account can monitor it for possible unauthorized charges.

    A fraudulent credit card was opened in my name by a salesman at Appliance Factory located in Thornton, CO, 84th & I-25. He charged $5,000.73 in kitchen appliances. I'd looked at but decided to buy them from Lowe's due to major price differences and no interest. He did this for the commission. I've been fighting this with LifeLock for months and the final decision was they will do NOTHING to help me. My credit score dropped from 800+ to under 600. No notice from LifeLock. I demanded they help restore my credit score as promised in their ads. After being told the Restoration Department would contact me within 3-5 business days, two WEEKS later I called them and The Restoration Department DENIED my request. They simply decided not to notify me of their decision. They actually had the ridiculous notion I'd just love to increase my services with Life Lock.

    LifeLock's advertisements are FALSE, they do not monitor credit cards opened in your name whether you open it or someone else does.

    My wife and I were members of Lifelock since 2009. As a retired federal law enforcement officer, my wife and I were also members of two other credit monitoring agencies via OPM as a result of two security breaches in 2015. We have leased two automobiles in the past two years through BMW and Mercedes-Benz Financial Services and also opened up a new American Express Account. We both received emails from the other two agencies the same day of our application yet NEVER received any notification from Lifelock. None. I logged into my account and saw that the last alert I received from them was an address change in December 2014 and the last alert regarding anything to do with our credit reports was in December 2013.

    It should be noted that I had the standard plan. I contacted Lifelock to cancel my account and the "retention specialist" started reading from a script about all of the wonderful services Lifelock provides if I upgrade my plan. When I told her that I wasn't getting notified about any activity on my account or my wife's account and hadn't received a credit application alert since 2013 despite leasing two vehicles and getting an AMEX card in the past two years, she stated that Lifelock doesn't monitor every transaction. WTF? I told her that it is unreasonable to believe that Lifelock wouldn't monitor the activity from three major vendors such as American Express, BMW Financial Services and Mercedes-Benz Financial Services. Remember, this is involving both my wife and myself. Two different people with two different social security numbers.

    She wouldn't budge from her script and when I insisted that I wanted to cancel my account and wanted at least a partial refund of the $11.98/month (I received a 40% discount) fee that I've been paying going back to the last notification in December 2014. She said she could only cancel my account and referred me to customer service, but reminded me that I still would have received their "up to a million dollars" benefit if I had been the victim of identity theft. Perhaps, perhaps not.

    I tried to tell her that the basic foundation for any credit monitoring service is to notify the customer in close to real time that there has been activity on their credit bureau files so the customer can either confirm that it is ok or begin to take immediate action. I explained to her that had I not been notified by the other two services, I would be totally in the dark about any credit bureau activity for my wife and myself had it been fraudulent. I'm not sure she understood that I was not receiving the major part of the service I was paying for and kept repeating that I would have been protected with the million dollar benefit. It should be noted that I had the Lifelock Advantage Plan until June 2015 yet I wasn't notified of my credit application to MBFS when we leased a Mercedes in May 2015 so having the more expensive plan did nothing as well.

    I then spoke with Customer Service who advised the best they could offer was a refund of one month's payment or 30 days of free monitoring. She apologized profusely and said it must have been a glitch, but, in the end, they weren't really going to do anything to keep me as a customer. Since I no longer have any confidence in Lifelock, I opted to get the refund. Lifelock has major radio personalities e.g. Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, Dr. Laura, etc... touting how wonderful it is which is why I signed up back in 2009. At least for me, it turned out that for the past 21 months, I've been wasting my money.

    If you didn't have LifeLock you need to get it. Someone got my personal information and applied for a credit card using my good credit. I got an alert from the good people at LifeLock. I informed them I didn't make an application for a credit card. I spoke to a representative from LifeLock and in less than 24 hours they and resolved the issue and helped me contact the credit bureau to put an alert on my information going forward. I can't imagine what could have happened to my good credit had LifeLock not been there helping protect what I have worked so hard to have. In today's age of information being so readily available, you need someone in the shadows watching out for you. Thanks so much LifeLock!!!

    An email from Lifelock today contained the subject: "LifeLock Notification: Court Records". Then the following: "While this notification doesn't necessarily mean you are a victim of identity theft, we found information that you should review. We detected a match of your name and date of birth in the following:

    Court Record Details, Alert Date 08/09/2016 08:43 AM".

    Eventually, after a very rude female phone representative, I got to a "Supervisor". It turns out that the "Alert Date" is just today's date and that the court record date was about 20 years ago. It took some time for Lifelock to explain that there must have been some change to the court record in the last two days and that was what triggered the worrying email message.

    I had already checked the court records after I received the email and before I got through to Lifelock on the telephone. I could find no such change. The supervisor put me on hold again, after talking over me loudly several times. She came back and said it was because the courts were updating old records to "digital" format. This was a recorded conversation. Both sides of telephone conversations can be recorded.

    I suggested that could be a possible reason, but unlikely. She insisted that this was the ONLY reason. Lifelock, she claimed. were 100% certain that no other reason existed for sending out the email suggesting my identity had been stolen. This phone call was recorded. I believe that I was not told the truth and that emails such as the one I received are sent by Lifelock to customers shortly before their annual contract expires. The emails have the intent of convincing customers that they are receiving a vigilant service. This is deceptive practice. It causes worry, wastes time and causes much aggravation with discourteous telephone support. I cancelled both my and my wife's accounts. My account was costing $350/yr.

    Response from LifeLock

    Hello I can certainly understand your concerns. When you enroll in a plan that includes Public Records monitoring, you will receive Court Records reports. These reports are pulled from various sources to help you protect yourself from being associated with criminal arrest and conviction records that may have resulted from others using your personally identifiable information for criminal purposes. The initial baseline report will give you an indication of what is currently listed in your record. This may include past infractions that have already been dismissed. If the records are valid for you, no further action is needed. We will notify you if any change occurs to this report in the future.

    Please note that the Court Records reports will search records based on first/last name and date of birth matches. This may on occasion cause an alert to be received which does not necessarily indicate that identity theft occurred. If there is a middle name or initial listed that does not match yours this is not indicative of identity theft and the alert can be disregarded.

    If all of the information (including the middle name or middle initial) matches yours, please contact the court listed on the report to confirm that this record does not pertain to your social security number and that no identity theft has occurred. Please note that the court records may also include items such as driving infractions. We apologize for any confusion this alert may have caused.

    Thank you.

    As long as you need your accounts monitored, LifeLock will be fine. I've been a member for several years and my credit score is to update monthly. This month, it did not update, and I called to inquire. The next day, I got an e-mail stating that the matter has been transferred to the IT Department and I would hear from them soon. Today (3 days later), I called to inquire and I was told that I would have to wait to hear from the IT Department. I asked to speak with a manager and the operator put me on hold.

    When she came back, she advised that the manager instructed her to e-mail the IT Department to inquire, but she still could not offer me an expected resolution time. I once again asked to speak with the supervisor, and I was put on hold for about 10 minutes before the operator came back to tell me that she is still waiting on a manager to respond to my request. I then just hung up. THIS IS NOT OKAY. If LifeLock can deduct money from my account every month to pay for services, they should at least feel obligated to provide those services. My job offers credit monitoring without the credit score component and I opted out b/c knowing my credit score is very important to me. Now I'm contemplating canceling my account. It's just not worth it.

    Hi, LifeLock might be helpful in specific scenarios, but I have yet to find one. For starters, LifeLock is expensive, they prey on the fear of the average person and the insurance-like feature-set they offer. As such, I think it would be great to also cover my child too, just in case, to protect their future. However, it is hard to really be able to justify the $56.09 (with coupon) to cover my child, who is 3 years old. My child does not have credit cards, a bank account or anything else. All they need to do is make sure no one opens anything in their name. I don't think it should cost almost $60 a child, then multiple that by the number of children I have, plus the Spouse cost; too much money for so little value. Currently, I do pay for the highest tier for myself, so I can review regarding all services offered.

    On average, LifeLock seems to float about 2 days behind on Credit Card transactions. Meaning if someone stole my CC number, I won't really know until about 2 days later, in some cases, I've seen it take up to a week for LifeLock to see my spending. This also applies to when your credit report is pulled (for when you apply for a loan, credit card, or whatever else), however, usually that is a little more on time (within hours). However, that is still unacceptable at times.

    Additionally, they should partner even closer with the Credit Bureaus to allow for "freezing" your credit with them (if you don't know already - you can call and freeze yourself with each bureau), however at this time, this is not a feature. I would like the option to be able to say I would like to allow this credit report pull, in which case, they communicate with the bureaus to unfreeze my credit temporarily, or no, this is not me, I didn't authorize my account to be pulled and let my credit remain frozen.

    In regards to attaching/monitoring your various accounts, if your bank, credit card, or whatever else account you are monitoring has multi-factor authentication (meaning you use a username and password, and some other sort of authentication, such as a security question to verify who you are), they don't support this very well. In my case, my bank forces me to use the security questions after the username and password. LifeLock does support a single (1/one) security question; the active question you were asked. However, when they log in again to monitor the account, the security question rotates, and it fails to log in since it cannot remember the other questions (there is no way to save/remember each question and answer each time it is asked). This means you have to babysit LifeLock on a nearly daily basis to keep it logging into your accounts.

    LifeLock limits the amount of things you can monitor, and you cannot pay on an ad-hoc basis to add more. For instance, you can only monitor a maximum of 5 credit cards, 2 insurance cards, 2 email addresses, etc. I have more than 5 credit cards and 2 insurance cards for myself (not including my wife or anyone else). I would happily pay another $1 per card or whatever (again, if it is affordable and not high priced) to monitor my cards. Or, they could simply allow for unlimited item/object monitoring for the covered person. They could authenticate each item by verifying the name on each credit card (or whatever is monitored) versus just asking for a number only. This could be allowed by charging and refunding 1 dollar per card to ensure accuracy.

    There are free competitors that offer more features. While LifeLock offers a guarantee to cover your fees associated with whatever theft occurs, it is likely your bank and credit card company do too and with much less hassle or argument. LifeLock does drop the ball when it comes to tracking your spending. This seems like an easy feature they could add using easy dashboards built into web design software (I work in the IT field, so to me, this is easy as they are already made widgets). It would be nice if they took my spending, and graphed it for an easy view of where my spending is going (much like their competitors do, both free and paid for services). I know this isn't their market space, but it would be an easy feature to add for greater value for me paying for this service.

    Additionally, I would like to see them add recommendations on how to build your credit score and/or pay off debt or whatever else. Come on, value-add LifeLock, be more than what you are, don't make me sign up with your free competitors to get those other features. Sure, you might monitor better, but that has yet to be seen by most people, including me, especially considering how slow you are to monitor and report on my credit.

    When it comes to Internet monitoring services, much improvement is needed. My email address (the one LifeLock monitors) has been compromised in an online breach. Again, using free tools, I was able to get a report on my email address being compromised and where. However, LifeLock has never alerted me to that compromise. Apparently that LifeLock feature is useless. Later, I did get an alert from LifeLock saying my information is on the deep-dark-web/black-market sites for a different compromise, but LifeLock did little to assist me or provide useful information on the information it found. What good does this alert do me if I can't act on it (or it doesn't tell me how to act on it)? Or if the alert does not give me an action item or recommendation course of action. I need to know how to respond to such an issue, not just be alerted to it.

    Additionally, LifeLock also monitors your information on a few large people search sites (called Privacy Monitor), however it doesn't opt-out for you. You have to opt-out yourself, then you click a button on LifeLock's website saying you opt-out. However, LifeLock does not continually monitor those sites to make sure you actually came off their site and/or reappear later on their site at a later date. When you log in, it just says you opt-out on this date, but does not say anything about them rechecking to make sure the website complied with your opt-out request and removed you. Even as such, the list of sites they check against is rather short and may do little to help, so don't expect much.

    As I mentioned previously, they do give you information, but it doesn't do much to help you. It is more of a do it yourself service after the alert is given. Your card was stolen, go call your bank, someone opened a credit card, go close it, that sort of thing. The mobile app is rather weak too. I have two primary gripes with LifeLock in general, the high cost to monitor a minor child with no presence in the world (again, my oldest child is 3) and the lack of complete multifactor authentication support (in my case, just a simple to program security question).

    Here is my prediction. One day I might get my identity stolen, and my bank account compromised, but I won't know at first because LifeLock doesn't support my banks required multi-factor authentication (which is just a rotating security question 5 questions in total). When I finally learn of this compromise, I will likely have to file a police report and will call LifeLock. They will likely turn around and tell me, we can't help you because you didn't keep your account up to date. I will be upset because to keep my account up to date is hard to do on a daily basis when they don't support normal security features that some banks insist on. Additionally, I will then have to call all three Credit Bureaus myself, and my bank/credit card companies, etc to keep myself safe. Again, just is just my prediction, but a concern I have nonetheless.

    The web (and mobile app) graphical user interface is okay, but not amazing. It is relatively straight-forward but is not a customizable interface where you choose what dashboards you want to see on your home page. The mobile app is rather new and underdeveloped, just the basic features at this point. This service could be a good service, however they need to build out their services offered, get better at the ones they do offer, and actually listen to the end user (I've emailed them my thoughts and recommendations before and I got a standard thank you email in return). I hope my review helps. I will be happy to update my review with a better or worse rating as their services change in the future assuming I renew a 3rd year.

    A week ago we called Lifelock and registered for Lifelock Ultimate Plus during the telephone contact. All the personal information for myself and my husband was given, along with credit card information for yearly payments. A security phrase was provided along with cellphone numbers and an email address. We were instructed to make a contact in our email for member.services@lifelock.com so our emails would not go to the spam or junk folder. We were also given a priority phone number. After a week had passed, and we still did not receive our email, we called Lifelock back. We were told there must have been some sort of error and we would have to provide all our information again. Why would we have to provide all our information again if our initial phone contact was recorded. Now we are left worrying who actually has our information and what kind of company Lifelock really is.

    LifeLock is robbing people out of their hard earned money! I signed up with LifeLock on 4/9/2016. Since then I have opened 2 accounts. LifeLock has never contacted me once. Today's date 6/18/2016. I tried calling to cancel my membership and they gave a waiting time of 37 minutes. After 44 min I hung up. Called again and prompted to sign up and I was immediately transferred to a representative. I explained to her about my 37 min wait time and how I wanted to cancel and she said she didn't have access to cancel my account and redirected me back to that extension only to now get a 55 min wait. I was able to sign up online yet I cannot cancel online. Thank you for nothing LifeLock. Just canceled the card you thought you'd bill again. I call this legal scamming. It's a damn shame companies like this still exist.

    Hello,
    Thank you for your feedback. I am sorry you had trouble reaching us by phone. We occasionally experience volume spikes, although our goal is to ensure that our calls are addressed quickly every time. The Lifelock alert network includes a variety of product features and data sources. Although it is very extensive, our network does not cover all transactions at all businesses. So you might not receive a Lifelock alert in every single case.

    My only question is why does it take you from February to March, which was at least 15-20 days after I ask about a new credit card. This seems way too long. If it had not been me, the person would have had that many days to spend a lot of money on a credit card that could have been in my name. I thought you would have called me the same day so I could stop it, if it was not me. I am going to check out Citibank today. So you will see it come up in a few minutes. Let's see how long it take you to report it to me. Thank you.

I was also cautioned not to write to the company and include credit card numbers, etc. That is to be kept private, give this kind of information via telephone call or a letter (by post).

    5 or 6 years ago, lost wallet in a convenience store. It was found by the clerk and she passed it to her boyfriend. Some months later I received a call from a collection agency demanding I pay $ 2000 to a company with which I had never done business. I finally got restitution after a year of hardwork and many heartaches. I then decided "never again'' and after a lot of personal investigation decided to go with LifeLock - not because of the stolen i.d. thing but because of other things such as informing me of sexual predators moving into the area and about a dozen other items of interest which were strictly hit or miss - mostly miss - even monitoring bank accounts. I sleep well, knowing LifeLock never sleeps. The fellow who stole my wallet? He went to jail and I'm happy about that but I'm sure he'd be in jail if I had signed with LifeLock long ago plus my retirement years would have seen more of the good life.

    On at least three occasions in the past year LifeLock has contacted me about applications for credit where at least some of the application information matched my credit information.

They set up a conference call between the department store fraud department, the LifeLock investigator, and me. Before I was off the phone the credit card was cancelled and I was assured by the department store that their credit bureau inquiry would be removed from my credit bureau record.

    LifeLock stayed on the call and participated. After the call the LifeLock investigator stayed on to explain any further options I could pursue to protect my credit and identity. Following our conference call I received an email summary of the entire proceeding. I am so impressed with their diligence and professional approach to protecting my credit and identity.
